5.0 out of 5 stars Great record!, April 9, 1999
By A Customer
This has always been one of my favorite Beach Boys records. "Darlin" is essential, as is the magnificent title track. "Aren't You Glad" sparkles and "I'd Love Just Once to See You" is about as sweet a rock and roll song as you will ever hear.

It's not a masterpiece the way Pet Sounds is a masterpiece, but it is an excellent record, a great collection of tunes.

If you love, or even just like, the Beach Boys, I highly recommend WILD HONEY!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Counterpoint To Pet Sounds, April 17, 2008
By Donald Hoffman "Bix Lives" (49° 56' 49" W, 41° 43' 32" N.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Anyone serious about pop music should own this record.

No it doesn't sound like Pet Sounds. And that's the point, damnit. This is Brian and Carl's version of "Get Back". It's simple, R&B flavoured and PERFECT. Your friends will never know it's the Beach Boys. Plus it will make you happy. It's a damn happy record made by 5 kids at the height of their powers. Put the title track on (loud) at your next party and see what happens. It's THE first home produced record (aside from Les Paul's work) and it's a full-tilt masterpiece. WAAY ahead of it's time.

I suppose this was Brian's reaction against the complex productions of Pet Sounds and Revolver.

Note: Carol Kaye plays bass on the Stevie Wonder cover "I was Made To Lover Her" as well as Stevie's version; -which I think was released shortly AFTER Wild Honey?

3.0 out of 5 stars Maddening, February 26, 1999
By A Customer
The Beach Boys are firmly in their post-Smile collapse here, though give them credit for trying something different with the soul-influenced title track and others. Unfortunately, this kind of singing really doesn't suit them, though "Darlin" is a good production. I suppose what's so maddening about this home-produced effort is that they seem to be still capable of great things, like the melody of "I'd Love Just Once To See You," but then it has silly lyrics and doesn't quite work out. Many good songs here, (including "Let the Wind Blow") but the production isn't what we had come to expect from them.
